Best Hard Rock/Metal Band (original)

1st Place: The Jaggernauts 2nd Place: picard 3rd Place: Drunk Drivers

Sometimes, you’ve just got to rock. When you do, the Chippewa Valley is rife with bands that can facilitate that rocking. One of those, The Jaggernauts, is the first choice for such rock, according to your votes. The unpredictable and creative veterans have been named the Best Hard Rock/Metal Band in the Valley. Taking the silver is the grungy, edgy, and emotive picard. The bronze goes to last year’s winner in this category, Drunk Drivers. Even though The Jaggernauts took the title, any of these three band would be glad to melt your face and have the skills to do so. —Ed Hudgins
